| Beschrijving voorzijde | The field bears two lunate crescents arranged back-to-back in a confronted position, with an eight-pointed star interposed centrally between them. The design is rendered in low relief on the roughly textured surface of the cast bronze bar, characteristic of Etruscan aes signatum production. No legend or border is present. The composition is symmetrical and heraldic in conception, likely carrying celestial symbolism associated with the Etruscan religious tradition of Tarquinii. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse repeats the obverse type in the same disposition: two lunate crescents placed back-to-back with their open ends facing outward, flanking a centrally positioned eight-pointed star in the field. The relief is shallow and the casting surface retains characteristic roughness and porosity consistent with ancient sand or clay mould casting. No inscription or exergual marking is present. The symmetrical repetition of the type on both faces is typical of the aes signatum currency bar series attributed to Etruscan centres. |
